Headboard Reveal

We’ve had our headboard for a little while now but I haven’t shared it on the blog until now because the bedroom is still a work in progress (almost done and will post the end result soon).  I always debate on sharing projects before they are completely done but I couldn’t resist… I’ve included a few snapshots of the headboard a below.  I’m really happy at how the it turned out – we wanted something white to contrast with our stripes.  My favourite is the detailing along the edges.  It’s nice to see how it went from a pile of fabric to the end result. And here it is….

A console table for the living room?

The other day I got to thinking about adding layers to our living room.  There is still some space to fill but we’ve been waiting to find the right pieces.  I was thought that  maybe adding a console table would be a fit table so I took  a peek online to see what I’d find.

To start, this is the corner/wall I’m thinking of:

The table would go behind the chair and provide a nice place for display, a little storage and another layer of decor.  It’s funny, I always see great console tables on other blogs and in magazines but when I went looking I didn’t find a huge list of ones I loved.  I’ve included two options below –  my favorite is the first one.  What do you think?

Lately I’ve noticed some new West Elm chairs and I’ve fallen in love with the light grey material on this one.  It doesn’t quite fit into our living room decor right now but maybe I’ll find a place for it at some point. Have you come across anything that you love but doesn’t quite fit in your place?  This happens to me all of the time…

Have a great weekend,
